2-5 Installing the Memory Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the memory: • Make sure that the motherboard supports the memory. It is recommended that memory of the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used. • Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing the memory to prevent hardware damage. • Memory modules have a foolproof design. A memory module can be installed in only one direction. If you are unable to insert the memory, switch the direction. 2-5-1 Triple Channel Memory Configuration The system provides 24 DDR4 memory sockets for per CPU and supports Triple Channel Technology. When the memory is installed, the BIOS will automatically detect the specifications and capacity of the memory. Enabling Triple Channel memory mode will be triple of the original memory bandwidth. The twenty-four DDR4 memory sockets are divided into three channels each channel has two memory sockets as following: Channel 1: DIMM_P0_A0/DIMM_P0_A1/DIMM_P0_A2 (For pimary CPU); DIMM_P1_E0/DIMM_P1_E1/DIMM_P1_E2 (For secondary CPU) Channel 2: DIMM_P0_B0/DIMM_P0_B1/DIMM_P0_B2 (For pimary CPU); DIMM_P1_F0/DIMM_P1_F1/DIMM_P1_F (For secondary CPU) Channel 3: DIMM_P0_C0/DIMM_P0_C1/DIMM_P0_C2 (For pimary CPU); DIMM_P1_G0/DIMM_P1_G1/DIMM_P1_G2 (For secondary CPU) Channel 4: DIMM_P0_D0/DIMM_P0_D1/DIMM_P0_D2 (For pimary CPU); DIMM_P1_H0/DIMM_P1_H1/DIMM_P1_H2 (For secondary CPU) DIMM_P0_C0 DIMM_P0_C1 DIMM_P0_C2 DIMM_P0_D0 DIMM_P0_D1 DIMM_P0_D2 DIMM_P1_E0 DIMM_P1_E1 DIMM_P1_E2 DIMM_P1_F0 DIMM_P1_F1 DIMM_P1_F2 Type RDIMM Ranks Per DIMM and Data Width SRx4 DIMM_P0_B2 DIMM_P0_B1 DIMM_P0_B0 DIMM_P0_A2 DIMM_P0_A1 DIMM_P0_A0 DIMM_P1_H2 DIMM_P1_H1 DIMM_P1_H0 DIMM_P1_G2 DIMM_P1_G1 DIMM_P1_G0 Speed (MT/s); Slot Per Channel (SPC) and DIMM Per Channel (DPC) 1DPC 3 Slot Per Channel 2DPC 3DPC 2133 1866 1600 RDIMM SRx8 2133 1866 1600 RDIMM RDIMM DRx8 DRx4 2133 2133 1866 1866 1600 1600 LRDIMM QRx4 2133 2133 - 21 - 1600 Hardware Installation
